Why don't you simply index the source content which you used to build index2 
into index1, i.e. have your "tool" index to both? You won't save anything on 
trying to extract that content from an existing index. But of course, you COULD 
write yourself a tool which extracts all stored fields for all documents in 
index2, transform it into docs which fit in index1 and then insert them. But 
how will you support deletes etc?
